I’VE LOST FAITH IN THE POLITICAL PROCESS: MICKEY KAUS DIDN’T WIN! Here’s his concession statement. Excerpt:

I’m a blogger. I spent about $40,000. I had one part-time aide, a recent college grad who was prepping for his LSATs. We had no headquarters, no pollsters, no highly paid strategists and consultants. We had a couple of laptops and an old Volvo. And we still ripped off more than 100,000 votes from a three term incumbent because there is a large group of voters who are dissatisfied with the prevailing dogma of the Democratic party. . . . The pols are leading us down a dead end. This election has shown their weakness.

Indeed.
